speaker flush mounting

yo i have a 98 2dr cavi, i jus bout some 5 1/4" comps and ripped out the stock 4x6 and threw them in (as i knew prior to installing) the windows dont roll down all the way, they hit the magnet

since its winter i dont really care right now, but wen it starts 2 heat up i was wondering how i go about flush mounting them, like do i just cut a hole in the door and mount them to the door with the grills?? or do i cut a hole make a mdf cutout and mount them to the cutout and the mdf cutout mount to the door? cause there pretty heavy and i dunt wanna rip the door apart by jus lettin them kick there lol

Re: speaker flush mounting

Basically you need a spacer. How much space do you need for the window to clear the magnet? You could go with the cutout of MDF and try to retain the speakers behind the doors. But you have to be careful not to let the speaker absorb to much air by creating a large gap. You will want to put some poly-fill around it so it sounds nice and tight. Have you thought about placing them in the kick panels?

Sorry man, no site.

Kick panels are actually quite strong. You would really have to kick the crap out of them to cause any damage. Also for imaging purposes I think it would be better in the kicks aimed up at the driver/passenger. But that's just me.
